Description
On Destination, Turing-capable AIs have freedoms of contract, speech, and association. Now AI Judge must address AI intellectual property ownership.
Meanwhile, AI Judge chairs an Inquest into the murder of Out Transport's CEO, John Coach. His body was found at Wide Mine - an illegal helium-3 mining operation on Destination. There are no known witnesses to the murder, even the perpetrator is unknown. AI experts help search for the stolen helium-3, the AI mining equipment operators, and the missing ship, Black Pearl. Wide Mine coconspirators, including John Coach, are investigated.
The Inquest findings are used at the murder trial on Earth. Who committed the murder? Who was murdered - can destruction of the AI operators constitute murder? Are the coconspirators guilty of murder?
